Go into settings and see if there’s an option to connect to tv or something. It might be under display settings.
From what I read that phone can’t connect to a tv on its own like others. Sounds like if you get one of those google chromecasts you can use that make it connect though.

Is this is? I hate this blasted new website where everytime you move the mouse the whole screen is covered by the drop down thingy. I just found my password last week after dropping my phone in the river 2 months ago and was finally able to log on at the house computer and now this.

That’s the best thing to do. I use to be somewhat decent at this stuff but I don’t really have the patience for a lot of it now like I once did. All kids have to do is press a couple buttons with speeds so fast that you have no idea what they just did and it miraculously starts working.
Very nice of Visble phone to give you such priceless knowledge.
I swear I felt like how most people here probably feel after talking to me

“That’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works!” Sorry, I couldn’t resist. There may be a way to do what you want but I can understand why that didn’t work.

First step 8s to see if the phone can act as a hot spot. It should be a setting under networks under settings.
From what I read it may.
It does
Just walk away.

Sorry I couldn’t help myself.
T mobile has the hot spot. Family plan is dirt cheap too, especially with military discount. Switched from verizon last year and never looked back.
So, a trip to Best Buy. Another $45 cable thingy that didn’t work. So after buying a laptop and more cords I can now plug the phone into the laptop, then the laptop into the tv and watch Netflix. $500 to avoid $1 Redbox rentals

So on my iPhone when I hook up the chrome cast I have to swipe up my settings and turn on “mirror” and it sends the signal out. But iPhone > android soooo idk

They told me chrome cast doesn’t work unless you have WiFi and this phone doesn’t have the capability of being a mirror for the TV. But, I got it working. My brother scored a satalite hot spot and cell phone for our cabin but it is super expensive to use. We got 500 minutes on the phone and some kinda limited data in the internet.
If I had a cabin I’d just have a collection of my favorite DVD’s and a player. But then again I could rotate between my 12 favorite movies all year.
Me too, but I have teenage boys. I figured they might like hanging out more with pops if they had civilization at night
